What you need:

 

How to Do it:

Mix the garlic salt, smoked paprika and lemon pepper in a small bowl.  Spread evenly over both sides of the beef shanks.

Cut the chard and the kale into ribbons, removing the thick, tough stems.

In the bottom of the crock pot, spread out the tomatoes.

Lay the shanks on top of the tomatoes.

Place all the greens into the crockpot and top with the onions.

Pour the broth and then the water into the crockpot and cover.

 

Cook on high for 30 minutes.  Reduce heat and cook on low for about 9 hours.

You can stir in cooked pasta at this time if you want (I didn’t).

Serve hot with toasted garlic bread – Delicious!

 

Makes about 4 servings
